Lesson 3 of 6 on Jihad and Quran including differentiated resources
In this unit pupils explore issues of Islamophobia in the world. Pupils will develop their understanding of where Islamophobia comes from and how Islamophobia impacts on society today. The unit has an equally weighted AO1 and AO2 emphasis – learning about religion and learning from religion in order to develop a pupil’s knowledge and understanding of Islam whilst aiding a pupil’s spiritual, moral, social and cultural growth.
Pupils will study and examine the concept of Islamophobia and explain the existence of it in our society today. They will also reflect on what this means from a humanitarian perspective and in contrast to other forms of prejudice that they already know. Pupils will consider what Islamophobia feels like from a Muslim perspective, whilst tackling the common misconceptions and prejudices usually associated with Islam.
This unit may link with work in PSHE and Citizenship. This unit can be taught through a half term, with extension activities and support for additional needs running throughout the scheme of work. The unit is expected to take approximately 7 hours.

This game board allows for pupils to revise the History of Judaism, competitively!
The game comes with a board, the rules, the answers and a template for score cards (if you should choose to change the rules) I have also provided 'Thunks' or discussion questions for pupils to explore at the end of the game and an idea for G&T knowledge application.
A fun and engaging way to revise the history of Judaism, and some of the most important events in Jewish history. Suitable for KS3 and KS4, with a specific emphasis on GCSE.
Easily adaptable for all and any subjects!
This particular game is for Religious Studies.
Pupils draw out and describe as many key words in time given (1 minute). Pupils cannot use any part of the word on the card to explain the word. Team mate(s) have to say the word on the card. If the players win the card they keep it.
The most cards won at the end of the game, wins.
